Fixed Leave Travel Allowance is fully taxable in the hands of employees.
But under section 10(5),an employee is entitled to exemption in respect of the value of travel concession or assistance received by or due to him from his employer or former employer for himself and his family in connection with his proceeding- (a) on leave to any place in India or (b) to any place in india after retirement from service or after the termination of his service. This exemption will be subject to other conditions mentioned in section 10(5).
In present case you change the nature of allowance to the benefit of employees.
